Switching On the Empty Freezer
Switch the freezer on. Sound alarm is on because
of inappropriate temperature. It may be switched
off by pressing the alarm button
.
Put the mode selection switch to the continuous
operation position. All three signal lamps are on.
Place fresh food into the freezer several hours
after the red signal lamp goes off.
Freezing Fresh Foods
Proper use of the appliance, adequately packed
food, correct temperature and taking into account
hygienic precautions will substantially influence
the quality of freezing the food or storing of the
frozen foodstuffs.
x
Carefully select food to be frozen: it should be
of adequate quality and suitable for freezing.
x
Choose correct packaging for each kind of food
and pack it correctly.
The packaging should be air tight and well
sealed without leaking since this could cause
substantial vitamin loss and dehydration.
Foils and bags should be soft enough to
tightly wrap around the food.
x
Mark packages with following data: kind and
amount of foods and the date of loading.
x
It is most important that the food is frozen as
quickly as possible. We therefore recommend
the size of the package not to be too large and
to be cooled before loading into the freezer.
x
The amount of the fresh foods that can be
loaded in the freezer within 24 hours is stated
on the rating plate. If the loaded amount is too
large, the quality of freezing is reduced which
affects the quality of frozen foods.
Freezing Procedure
Freezing compartment is used for freezing
foodstuffs (see chapter Description of the
Appliance).
x
If you want to freeze larger amount of fresh
food, set the operation mode selection switch to
the position for continuous operation (yellow
light is on). After 24 hours you can load the
freezing compartment with packages of fresh
foods.
x
24 hours after the food was loaded, the frozen
packages can be stored into baskets and the
freezer can be loaded with new packages of
fresh foods. Don't let the fresh packages touch
the frozen ones.
x
Some 24 hours after the last load, set the
switch to the position for automatic operation
(yellow light is off).
x
There is no need to set the switch to the
position for continuous operation if you intend to
freeze smaller amount of fresh foods (1-2 kg).
Storing Frozen Foods
Packages of frozen foods are stored in baskets. If
you remove the baskets, you can store frozen
packages directly on the cooling shelves.
Storing Commercially Frozen Foods
The storage time and recommended temperature
for storing commercially frozen foods is indicated
on the packaging. For storing and use consider
manufacturer's instruction.
When shopping, be careful and choose only
packages of foods which are adequately packed
and provided with complete data and stored in
freezers where the temperature is not higher than
-18°C.
Do not buy packages of food wrapped with frost.
This indicates that the package was thawed
before at least once. Take care that packages
don't start to thaw. Temperature rise shortens the
storage time of commercially frozen foods.
